The first World Championship Grand Prix was held in 1950 at Silverstone; since then 71 circuits have hosted a Grand Prix. A lot of classic (i.e. older) circuits have hosted Grands Prix using different configurations throughout their history: Nürburgring, Spa-Francorchamps, Monza, etc. Taking Nürburgring as an example, the first World Championship race there used the 22.835 km (14.189 mi) configuration, but concerns over safety meant that more recent Grands Prix have used a shorter, safer circuit.[2] F1 circuits were predominantly in Europe during the early years of the championship; as the sport has expanded, so has the location of its circuits. The expansion into Asia and America has been a recent occurrence. Of the 20 circuits that hosted a Grand Prix in 2012, nearly half were not on the calendar before 1999.[3]

The "Map" column shows a diagram of the latest configuration on current tracks and the last configuration used on past tracks.

The "Type" column refers to the type of circuit: "street" is a circuit held on closed city streets, "road" refers to a mixture of public roads and a permanent track, and "race" is a permanent facility.

The "Last length used" shows the track length for the configuration that was used last time the Formula One race was held on a given track.
